October Happenings...
I know it's a little late but I wanted to update you on my October Happenings. October was a very busy month. A big highlight was visiting Colorado for the first time to attend the first Native Art Market in Vail on October 5th. Walking the village felt like being in a movie with the old-world Bavarian architecture and surrounding mountains covered in gold aspen leaves.
I created three new vessels for the market, which are still available. Reach out through email if you are interested in purchasing. Two of these are embellished with freshwater pearls, china berries, wampum beads and fresh water mussel shells. I've been experimenting with adding different materials to figure out the best technique and aesthetic. I'm slowly figuring it out. So far my favorites are vessels with no embellishment. What do you think? Which ones are your favorite?
I'll be updating my website over the next couple of weeks so stay tuned.
And the last bit of news. I was juried into the 69th Annual Indian Fair + Market at the Heard Museum in Phoenix for the second year in a row! I'm so excited to return and look forward to spending more time in Arizona. I'll be working on new pieces for the next few months so if you're in the southwest, stop by in March to see my new work.
I've been intentionally spending less time on social media, and with winter coming, I may just hibernate. I want to leave you with a few more photos taken during my favorite month. The golds and yellows against the New Mexico sky are breathtaking. And the late monsoon rains have amplified the already intense colors. I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I enjoyed taking them.
Have a good one!
